Paper Lamination - Tree Bark

In May, the North Herts and Beds branch of the Embroiderers' Guild﻿ will be holding an exhibition in Letchworth Arts Centre. The branch members have been asked to each create an A5 piece of work based on the theme of trees and this is my piece:

The piece is based on a tree bark I saw in Namibia and this holiday has provided me with so much inspiration. I have layered two pieces of paper lamination and hand stitched it to background﻿ fabric. All the member's work will be mounted onto artists canvas. I think there will be lots of entries, who can fail to be inspired by trees? I can't wait to see them.

About Me

I enjoy creating unique textiles. In particular, I enjoy printing and hand embroidering cloth.
In 2011, I completed my City & Guilds Diploma in Embroidery and I feel that I am now starting to find and explore my own preferred way of working.
I love increasing my knowledge and skills and I will often be found attending a textile related course on a Saturday.
During the week I am a Project Manager in the Financial Services Industry.
